In the recent past, software industry has seen a paradigm shift in the software development methodologies. Several software development models have been proposed from time to time keeping in view the changing patterns and requirements of customers. Advancements in technology and change in standard operating procedures of corporate sector organizations has led to the development and evolution of...

in quality control charts, the problem of determining the optimum process mean arises when the deviation of a quality characteristic in one direction is more harmful than in the opposite direction. the failure mode in these two directions is usually different. a great majority of researches in this area have considered asymmet-ric cost function for processes with single quality characteristics....

This position paper deals with the exploration of fitness and evolvability of personal learning environments (PLEs). Taking a software engineer’s perspective, PLE evolution is a software project. Software quality characteristics like Functionality and Usability map to the PLE’s fitness, while Maintainability is important for evolvability. Only adaptation can secure future fitness. But for this,...

This paper presents a model to predict the number of residual defects before testing phase. The developers need this information a priori for optimal testing resource planning and quality assessment of the software being developed. In the early stages of software development life cycle (SDLC), software residual defects are affected by both product and process characteristics of the project. The...

The excitation frequency on the electrical characteristics of pork had been identified by the experiments of the electrical characteristics and the theory of electrical characteristics, the relationship between the evaluation of quality of pork and the impedance characteristics was established, and a nondestructive portable meter for measuring pork quality was developed. The functions of each h...

In this paper, we have proposed a shell type dielectric microsphere resonator in order to enhance its quality factor. In this work we have assumed that the radius of dielectric microsphere is 12μm and that the interior metal layer radius is 11.5μm. We have obtained analytic equations for Vector potentials, characteristic equation, quality factor, resonance frequency and resonance location of TE...

Software reliability is one of the most important characteristics of software quality. Its measurement and management technologies employed during software life cycle are essential for producing and maintaining quality/reliable software systems. It can also be monitored efficiently using Statistical Process Control (SPC). It assists the software development team to identify and actions to be ta...

The present article discusses and presents a new and comprehensive approachaimed at measuring the maturity and quality of software processes. This method has beendesigned on the basis of the Software Capability Maturity Model (SW-CMM) and theMulti-level Fuzzy Inference Model and is used as a measurement and analysis tool. Among themost important characteristics of this method one can mention si...
